Congratulations on developing such a keen intuition, but I hope it's quite visible that this skill you've acquired come from somewhere, right? You weren't just born with this.

Someone who thinks they're flawless is incredibly easy to manipulate and I'm sorry to break this to you, but you can't read anyone's mind, you don't know what's going in my head, just because most people follow the "rules" doesn't mean I will. Unfortunately that's just life. That's what this post is trying to get across. I think.

If you're always right, you're probably not very brave and keep yourself safe within the predictable parameters. I know this may come off as harsh and I don't mean to insult your intelligence, but I'm just being honest here. Honesty is something you should always value highly, that's why it's something we need to ration carefully.
